Another Success Story: Russell Blake Writes Eight to Nine New Books a Year

Wow. As he says in his post, http://russellblake.com/three-years-come-and-gone/, that's one book every five weeks. Impressive.

But he also tells us to have fun when we create our stories and other areas of our lives.

Amen. I call that advice worth following.

James Garner and Robin Williams

We have lost two more "greats" in the world of acting. I'm still in love with James Garner and have been watching old The Rockford Files episodes after hearing the sad news. Can't get enough of him.

And Robin Williams's suicide was just another shock.

Miss you both.
